Miami Dolphins wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr.has scored a major win both on and off the field. Last November, Beckham filed a lawsuit against sportswear giant Nike, a legal battle worth $111 billion.
According to NFL insider Dov Kleiman, Beckham accused Nike of owing him at least $20 million in back salary and guaranteed royalties. The superstar wideout claimed that Nike intentionally suppressed shoe sales to avoid extending his contract, leading to a heated courtroom showdown.
On Thursday, July 18, 2024, Beckham shared the news with his fans that he and his legal team had emerged victorious against the global brand. The news has spread like wildfire, not just among Dolphins fans but throughout the entire sports community.
Celebrating the hard-fought victory, Beckham posted a photo on his Instagram account, dressed sharply in a black suit, surrounded by his triumphant legal team. His caption read, "JUST DO......RIGHT @nike . I wanna take this moment to thank God first and foremost thank you Heavenly Father. I wanna thank my team for every hour they have spent preparing on this case. I wanna thank the jury for simply doing what's right in a world full of wrong... my message to whoever needs this is, STAND UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN! JUSTICE WAS SERVED!!!"
